The Rangers are having a solid season. It seemed that we could never expect progress, but every time, they lacked a lineup to intervene in the fight for the Stanley Cup. Now Peter Laviolette, who knows how to get along with high-level hockey players, is the head coach. That's why we already see the New York team showing great results. They've won four of their last five meetings, losing only to Edmonton in a tight 4-3 match, but that hasn't stopped the Rangers from leading the Eastern standings.
Washington
Washington is having a hard time earning points. The Capitals know it will not get any easier, as key players are of advanced age. So this is probably their last chance to compete for some title. Over the previous four games, the team men made it overtime, beating Carolina 2-1, the Islanders 3-2, Columbus 3-2, and losing to Tampa Bay 2-1. In the standings, Washington is located in the seventh position.
Expect Betting Tips
Recently, Washington gained consistently good results, but they struggled to earn every point. Now the Capitals will face the Rangers, so it will be tough to get another point. The visitors won their first meeting of the season 4-0, but the Blues simply underestimated their opponent, and they won't let that happen this time. NY has won their last four games, being the favorites.
This confrontation has been entertaining and productive lately. Both represent the Metropolitan Division and could be direct competitors for tournament spots. Still, the difference is too great for them to play openly and score safely. In four previous H2H meetings, the opponents shot 28 goals (7.00 average per game).
